Episode Summary

Every celebrity success story usually starts with small beginnings and the same goes for Superstars and Divas in the WWE. Ivory has been a preeminent diva in the WWE for the better part of five years and she's had three stints as Women's Champion. Wouldn't you know it, Ivory got her start in a small town as well. With that, they brought us to Ivory's hometown and that's a small town in California. Ivory's mother stated that she was a beautiful little baby from the time she was born. Ivory has always had a lot of energy but she was always searching for something different. Ever since she was really small, she wanted to do something unique. Ivory really enjoyed the playground as a kid and she was a tomboy since she was five years old. She used to be fabulous on the monkey bars. Ivory was always athletic in elementary school and she was always running around like crazy. That's why she liked having her brothers around because they exposed her to sports. Ivory's brothers used to be into wrestling and they'd watch it all the time and then act like they were wrestlers. They made a ring with pillows and then they dressed in underwear and then they "wrestled" until their mother came and broke it up. Ivory was especially into that and she just loved piling on and coming at them. Ivory's parents got divorced when she was ten but she doesn't remember them fighting. The only way the divorce effected her was that she was a little embarrassed about it. In high school, her life changed because of boys. When guys would come over for a date, it was a laugh because they would knock on the door and you would hear trampling of feet because everyone would run through the house and plant themselves on the couch. Ivory would try to get the guy out of there as fast as she could. Ivory's school has actually been used for shows like Buffy the Vampire and the 90210 gang. Ivory wanted to develop herself like her brothers and sisters, but she wanted to be unique. One thing they didn't get into was cheer leading and Ivory got into that. Ivory never decided whether or not she would go to college; it was always that she was going. Ivory was smart, had good grades but was always rebellious. Ivory had a lot of odd jobs to pay her rent and she eventually got involved in wrestling. They went to this audition and it was creepy because it was a bad part of LA. Mondo Guerrero was her trainer and he was so passionate about it and it made Ivory really like it and want to come back. Ivory got tired of being on TV and not being able to pay her rent, so she gave it up for a while and that brought her into a different chapter in her life. She finally got a couple jobs in Hollywood and she was doing stunt shows there. While she was doing the stunt shows, she had 10 other jobs layered on top of that and she got a phone call from someone who referred her to the WWF because they needed a girl who could look good and work and Ivory got the job, so that's the beginning of Ivory. Ivory stated that her life couldn't have turned out any better.moreless
